  • It’s not that Linux can’t do what you specify, but that it may not do it in the way you require, which is based on your windows experience. Lots of what you describe can be done

    For example, using command line tools like sed, rename, ffmpeg, find, etc…, you can do all of the text manipulation you can imagine.

    But you also specify that you want gui wrappers, and in all likelihood, there are gui wrappers for what you want to do, but to meet your exact specifications, maybe not.

    If you’re willing to do some adapting, which it sounds like you are, the. I think you can pretty easily adapt to Linux, as it’s perfectly capable of handling your high level requirements. It’s in the minutiae of how those requirements are met that is in question.









  • As the other commenters said, “district” was an autocorrect typo. I meant distro/distrubution.

    I can’t speak to what’s wrong with the fan, but if you use imager and write a supported distribution to the sd card, you can see if the fan works again, and/or try troubleshooting again.

    Also, consider that it could be a hardware issue. The fan could just be dead. Hardware fails, and you should try to rule that out.
